As a laboratory technician, I note in the text from Murray Mc Gregor that he
was preparing mustard as a sideline.
Mustard seed is one of the very rare vegetable who deliver cosequent amount
of Carbon Disulphide. This product affect brain, liver and nerves. The fact
is that you can' t find a lot of studies on very low level chronic exposure,
the only studies made is about workers in industrial plant who have a lot of
contact with the product.
I know that anything who affect your liver decrease your allergic
resistance.
I include the adress of the datasheet of the product

I know that a simple urine test can be made on people.
the problem with light chronic intoxication is that usually under a certain
amount, no medical studies are made.
Happy New Year everybody.
